To run a Vagrant task when executing the "vagrant destroy" command, you can create a script that includes both the destruction of the Vagrant environment and the task you want to run. Here's an example of how you can achieve this:

  1. Create a new shell script (e.g., destroy_and_task.sh) in your Vagrant project directory.
  2. Edit the script and add the following commands:
 1
 2
 3
 4
 5
 6
 7
 8
 9
10
#!/bin/bash

# Destroy the Vagrant environment
vagrant destroy -f

# Run your desired task
echo "Running your task..."
# Add your task command here, for example:
# vagrant up
# vagrant provision


  1. Save and close the script.
  2. Make the script executable by running the following command in your terminal:
1
chmod +x destroy_and_task.sh


  1. Now, whenever you want to destroy the Vagrant environment and run your task, you can simply execute the script by running:
1
./destroy_and_task.sh


By following these steps, you can ensure that your desired task is executed whenever you destroy the Vagrant environment using the "vagrant destroy" command.
